Industrial acoustics
Acoustic expertise for your industrial projects
Our many years of national and international expertise in the field of industrial noise and vibration protection accompany you through every phase of your project. From feasibility studies and urban land-use planning to approval and detailed planning to successful implementation.
As acousticians, we know how noise is generated – and how to prevent it. We understand systems holistically – from the process to the individual components. This comprehensive know-how enables us to identify the decisive sources and transmission paths even in complex industrial plants. Whether in planning or measurement: we create the basis for efficient and sustainable solutions for reducing noise and vibration.
As an expert body notified in accordance with §29b BImSchG (Federal Immission Control Act) and an accredited testing laboratory for noise and vibration, Müller-BBM is a reliable partner for industry, commerce, and public authorities.
Our Expertise in Industrial acoustics
Technical acoustics
Low noise emission is an important quality feature of machines and equipment.
Machine acoustics therefore play a crucial role, especially in industrial settings where the Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC) requires low-noise design and qualified labeling of machine sound emissions.
Our experts determine the sound emissions of machines, prepare acoustic specifications, and develop noise reduction measures. We support you in the constructive acoustic optimization of your machines and ensure that all legal requirements are met.
Your Benefits:
- Improved Product Quality: Quiet and pleasant-sounding machines are preferred by users, leading to higher customer satisfaction and a stronger market image.
- Compliance with Legal Requirements: Müller-BBM supports you in proper labeling and in meeting all acoustic regulations, ensuring legal certainty and compliance.
- Efficient Noise Reduction Measures: Through our consulting and support, we help minimize noise emissions effectively.
Test bench measurements
Test bench measurements are a key component of quality assurance and the optimization of machinery and equipment. Various parameters are measured and evaluated to ensure that required standards are met. We support you in identifying the best procedures and strategies to optimize your machines and devices.
Your Benefits:
- Precise and reliable results: Test bench measurements allow for accurate assessment of the sound emissions of machines and devices under controlled conditions. This leads to precise and reliable results that are essential for optimizing and improving machine acoustics.
- Compliance with legal requirements: By conducting test bench measurements, companies can ensure that their machines and devices meet legal standards and regulations. This minimizes the risk of legal issues.
- Optimization of machine acoustics: Test bench measurements provide the opportunity to test and evaluate various acoustic measures. This helps companies identify the best solutions to reduce noise emissions and optimize the acoustic performance of their machines.
Sound measurements in industrial facilities
Sound emission measurements are a key component of industrial acoustics and serve to precisely capture and evaluate the noise generated by machinery and equipment. These measurements are particularly important to ensure compliance with legal regulations and to minimize noise exposure for employees and nearby residents.
Your Benefits:
- Precise and Reliable Results: Measurements provide customers with accurate and dependable data on the sound emissions of their entire facility. This data forms the basis for optimizing and improving industrial operations.
- Optimization of Facility Design: The results of sound emission measurements can be used to enhance the design and operation of the facility. This helps minimize noise generation and reduce environmental impact.
- Improved Public Acceptance: A well-founded sound emission assessment can help increase acceptance of the project among affected communities and authorities. Transparent and traceable measurements demonstrate that environmental concerns are taken seriously, strengthening trust in the project.
Sound measurements in industrial facilities
Sound immission measurements are a key component of modern noise and vibration protection. They are used to capture and assess the sound emissions from machinery, equipment, buildings, and facility components, and to evaluate their impact on the surrounding environment. We develop, optimize, and coordinate all necessary technical measures to protect the surroundings of technical installations and workplaces from noise and vibration exposure.
Your Benefits:
- Legal Certainty: Through precise measurements and analyses, we ensure that your facilities comply with statutory sound emission and immission limits. This minimizes the risk of legal disputes.
- Cost Reduction: A coherent overall concept for noise and vibration protection, considered early in the development process, helps avoid unnecessary costs. With our expertise, we develop economically viable solutions that save costs in the long term.
- Environmental Sustainability: Our solutions are not only cost-effective but also ecologically sound. We design measures that minimize environmental impact from noise and vibrations, contributing to a more sustainable industry.
- Optimized Operations: Our database-supported forecasts and customized action packages help you integrate noise and vibration protection efficiently into your operational processes. This leads to an improved working environment and increased productivity.
Acoustic planning support
Acoustic Planning Support refers to professional assistance and guidance for projects involving acoustic considerations. This includes the planning, implementation, and monitoring of noise reduction and sound insulation measures in various construction projects, such as residential buildings, commercial properties, or industrial facilities.
We develop acoustic concepts and noise mitigation strategies, conduct precise sound measurements, and prepare sound insulation certificates and expert reports that serve as the basis for approval procedures. Additionally, we monitor construction execution to ensure that acoustic requirements are met.
Your Benefits:
- Early Problem Detection: Involving acoustic experts during the planning phase allows potential noise issues to be identified and addressed early, preventing costly and time-consuming corrections later in the project.
- Improved Communication and Collaboration: Close cooperation between acoustic experts, planners, and project owners promotes smooth communication and coordination. This leads to more efficient project execution and minimizes misunderstandings and delays.
- Sustainability and Environmental Responsibility: Integrating noise protection measures into planning not only reduces noise pollution for the surrounding area but also contributes to environmental protection. This can enhance the company’s image and support more sustainable operations.
- Long-Term Planning Security: By considering noise protection measures early on, companies can plan with confidence and focus on their core competencies. This creates stability and security for future projects and investments.
